Thank you Mark - it’s been a slow dawn on me that there is so much crossover yet so much to share between the disciplines and it’s not as complex as they like us to think!

Anna - what is the latest you would sow a green manure and what is best for a late sowing 🙏

Most really want sowing by mid summer but I am still sowing and growing phacelia and buckwheat. Buckwheat might still germinate in November (after lifting dahlias) and go through the winter.

Thanks Anna - I’ll give that a go. Nothing to lose. I’ve got white clover in some of my dahlia beds and a heavy carpet of forget me nots that might need moving on.

I made the mistake of leaving forget me nots in place! The clover can stay in my beds though.. that's lovely foliage in the summer too.

Sonja! What a beautiful thing to say! That means so much. I hope you enjoy the rest of the series. Let me me know if I'm still resonating!

This has to be the path to follow, as we are all on a new journey now. This year has been tumultuous, for everything, from politics through to soil.... it's all becoming too hot to be complacent!

I look forward to hearing more reality!

Thank you 😊

It's such a tightrope between action and meditation. If I think about it too much, I'm overwhelmed. I can see why so many ignore these issues, it is almost too much to think about. But I still return to trying again and again. Garden is always a balm isn't it?

The garden is definitely a healer and a space to believe there is another way.
